As Mo Chenyi watched the blue smoke galloping towards him, he suddenly felt a shock. There was an air of disdain for the world on her, as if she had the stunning elegance of a noble, which made his pupils constrict and a hint of amazement flashed in his eyes.
As the white light settled, Mo Chenyi came into her view. He was dressed in a fiery red robe, with ink-like dark green hair tied up with a white jade hairpin. His handsome face seemed to have walked out of a painting, yet there was no hint of femininity. It was no wonder that Qin Muxue would come to him in the middle of the night and endure all kinds of humiliation for him.
Mo Chenyi looked at her and immediately thought of the shameless and infatuated person who always followed him around. Despite her stunning beauty, it only made him feel disgusted, so he quickly averted his gaze.
But in the next moment, he thought to himself that she was only here because he had taken her as a concubine before marriage, and she was pretending to get his attention.
"Why are you here? I have already given you a divorce letter. Leave quickly, don't bother me anymore!" Mo Chenyi's face darkened as he glared coldly at the seated Blue Smoke, and angrily said, "If you don't leave, don't blame me for not cherishing the old feelings! Guards, drive her away!"
Qin Muxue, who had just heard Liu Chengfeng call out that Blue Smoke had arrived, suddenly felt a pang of anxiety, fearing that something had gone wrong. Seeing that everyone's attention was drawn to Blue Smoke, she felt a heavy weight in her heart, a sense of foreboding spreading within her.
But upon hearing Mo Chenyi's words, she felt a little relieved. When everyone's attention was not on Blue Smoke, a cold smile appeared on her lips. She suddenly exclaimed and rushed towards Mo Chenyi, "Your Highness Yi, this is absolutely unacceptable!"
As she spoke, she seemed to flutter like a red butterfly and flew to Mo Chenyi's horse, showing a worried expression. She forcefully diverted the attention of the crowd from Blue Smoke and bowed, "Your Highness Yi, you have already taken a concubine today, making Blue Sister an abandoned woman. If you command someone to drive her away again, it will damage her reputation. I implore Your Highness Yi, please do not harm Blue Sister. I cannot bear such a disgrace!"
Qin Muxue's tone was sincere, her expression earnest, and her eyes were full of genuine affection. Anyone who saw her would think that she was genuinely worried about Blue Smoke.
Blue Smoke sneered inwardly, impressed by her acting skills. She had stolen the man of the protagonist and still managed to maintain a good reputation. She now understood the term "green tea b*tch" very well. Facing such a rival, it was no wonder that she had ended up in such a miserable situation.
Blue Smoke shifted her gaze from Qin Muxue to Mo Chenyi and saw a sharpness in his eyes, wrapped in tenderness. To others, it might seem like he was affectionate, but Blue Smoke, with her expertise in psychology and microexpressions, could see through it all.
With just one glance, she could tell that Mo Chenyi did not truly love Qin Muxue. His marriage proposal today was merely a ploy to gain control of the military power in Tiger Guard!
"It is my insistence to marry you, Snow, this has nothing to do with you," Mo Chenyi softened his tone and reached out to help Qin Muxue up.
Qin Muxue stood up slowly with Mo Chenyi, her eyes filled with endless tenderness, as if she could not marry anyone else. A blush appeared on her cheeks as she tightly held Mo Chenyi's hand.
Mo Chenyi could hardly believe his eyes. Was this still the Blue Smoke who had been chasing after him? How had she changed so much?!
"Don't rush me. After I finish speaking, I will leave on my own," Blue Smoke said calmly, a hint of frost in her eyes, devoid of any emotion.
Mo Chenyi was somewhat incredulous. How could she say such things? How could she not want to marry him, the prince?
"No, I..." Qin Muxue was about to speak, but she realized that Blue Smoke's words had a hidden meaning. If she agreed, she would be seen as the third party who stole someone else's fiancé. If she disagreed, she would be seen as not liking Mo Chenyi.
For a moment, Qin Muxue was at a loss, her eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of coldness surging in them. When did her words become so sharp, allowing her to block any response?
After a while, a glint of cunning flashed in Qin Muxue's eyes, and she smirked, her tears falling like broken pearls, "I am grateful for Your Highness Yi's favor, but Blue Sister is deeply in love with the prince. I am willing to step back and let Blue Sister and Your Highness Yi be together. I know I am not worthy to marry anyone, so I am willing to remain unmarried for the rest of my life, praying for the happiness of Blue Sister and Your Highness Yi."
She appeared to be a pitiful woman, but her words made everyone think that Blue Smoke was the one causing trouble, and she had successfully portrayed herself as an innocent victim. With just one sentence, she shifted all the blame onto Blue Smoke's shoulders.
